Opportunity Summary:
The Children s Hospitals Graduate Medical Education (CHGME) Payment Program is a federal grant opportunity run by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), administered through HRSA s Bureau of Health Professions (BHPr). The program exists because most federal support for graduate medical education (GME) historically flows through the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). Since freestanding children s teaching hospitals typically see far fewer Medicare patients than adult hospitals, they have traditionally received much less Medicare-based GME funding. CHGME was created to help correct that imbalance by providing payments that compensate children s teaching hospitals for the disparity in federal GME support.
This specific funding announcement (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA 13 143) offered discretionary grant funding under CFDA 93.255, with an estimated total funding level of $268,000,000 and an expected 55 awards. The funding instrument is a grant and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which means applicants are not required to contribute non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving an award. The opportunity was posted May 9, 2012, with an application closing date of July 13, 2012, and it was later archived on September 11, 2012.
Eligibility is narrowly focused on children s teaching hospitals that meet several specific statutory and regulatory criteria. To apply, an organization must: (1) participate in an approved graduate medical residency training program, (2) have a Medicare Provider Number, (3) be excluded from the Medicare inpatient prospective payment system (PPS) under section 1886(d)(1)(B)(iii) of the Social Security Act and related regulations, and (4) be a freestanding children s hospital. The beneficiary eligibility language indicates that public or private, nonprofit or for-profit children s teaching hospitals may apply as long as they meet the above requirements and operate an accredited residency training program. A key operational requirement is that the hospital must be training residents during the federal fiscal year for which it is requesting CHGME funds.
In practical terms, the program is designed to support the costs associated with training pediatric residents and other physicians in freestanding children s hospitals, recognizing that these institutions play a central role in developing the pediatric physician workforce but do not benefit from Medicare s GME financing in the same way adult-serving teaching hospitals do. The overall intent is workforce and training support, delivered through direct payments to eligible hospitals to help sustain and strengthen residency training in pediatric settings.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1) What is the Children's Hospitals Graduate Medical Education (CHGME) Payment Program?
The Children's Hospitals Graduate Medical Education (CHGME) Payment Program is a federal grant program run by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). It provides payments to eligible freestanding children's teaching hospitals to help address a historical funding gap in federal graduate medical education (GME) support.
2) Why does the CHGME program exist?
Most federal support for GME has historically flowed through the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and is tied to Medicare patient volumes.

CHGME was created to help correct that imbalance by compensating children's teaching hospitals for the disparity in federal GME support.
